The City Hall of Prague 20 will withdraw the lawsuit against the zoning decision regarding the section of the Prague ring road between Běchovice and the D1 highway, which it filed in the summer. the new municipal council decided on this.
Petr Měšťan (ODS), who headed the town hall in the last election period, told Prague 20 that he did not agree with the then decision of the representatives to file a lawsuit.
The zoning decision for the section was issued by the building authority of Prague 22 the year before last July, and in June of this year this authority was confirmed by the South Bohemian Regional Authority, which dealt with it after objections were filed, according to which the Prague municipality was biased when making the decision. The investor of the construction is the state Directorate of Roads and Highways.
“Based on the reasonable, existing negotiations on increased compensatory noise measures with the ŘSD, it is pointless for the office, which must be able to get along with the institutions, to persist in the lawsuit,” stated A townsman. He added that according to the agreement with the Ministry of Transport Martin Kupka (ODS), new anti-noise compensations are to be incorporated into the project in January next year.
In July of this year, representatives of Horní Počernice approved the filing of the lawsuit at the instigation of the then opposition, the proposal was prepared by representatives of the ANO movement and the Počernice Citizens’ Movement with the support of the Pirates. According to the initiators, the construction will negatively affect the traffic situation in Prague 20 and lead to the deterioration of the environment in the area of Horní Počernice. They described the proposed compensatory measures, i.e. the construction of several noise-proof walls, as insufficient. At the time, the citizen described the move as an attempt by the opposition to make itself visible before the elections.
The section of the outer ring around the metropolis, designated by the number 511, will measure 12.6 kilometers. After completion, the circuit was supposed to measure about 83 kilometers, according to the previous plans, about half of it is still in operation. Currently, apart from section 511, the entire northern part from Ruzyně via Suchdol, Březiněves to Černý Most is missing.
